Thames Chase Community Forest

Thames Chase Community Forest covers 40 square miles of countryside around the London/Essex borders. The forest is supported by the Thames Chase Trust, a local charity dedicated to improving landscapes for people and wildlife.

Over the last 25 years we have planted more than 2 million trees, as well as creating numerous ponds, meadows, footpaths and cycle routes. Whether you want to walk your dog, spot wildlife, jog or cycle for health, or explore our play trails with your children, there are countless special places within the Community Forest for you to enjoy.
